Easy to use
The device is easy to control with 1 button on the casing. Recording is switched on and off with just one button.
All solutions responsible for the quality of recorded material are enclosed in an aesthetic and elegant body, ensuring full discretion.
Moreover, the dictaphone will not signal its operation or activity in any way that might provoke suspicion from others – during recording, the indicator light is off, and the device emits no sound.
Dictaphone memory
The dictaphone has a built-in 8GB memory, which allows for storing recordings in various formats and qualities:
- 32kbps ~ 640 hours of recordings - MP3/WAV format
- 64kbps ~ 320 hours of recordings - MP3/WAV format
- 128kbps ~ 160 hours of recordings - MP3/WAV format
- 256kbps ~ 90 hours of recordings - MP3/WAV format
Other files can also be saved on the dictaphone's drive.
Operating modes
- 1 - Continuous
- 2 - Voice-activated
The first mode is responsible for uninterrupted recording, meaning from the moment the device is turned on in this mode, the dictaphone will record for up to 13 hours.
The second mode, activated by voice, does not record continuously, but only records content when it is spoken. Thanks to this capability - sound detection - you can be sure that the files saved on the device will record speech in its entirety, and thus will not be devoid of meaning or context.
This way, you will also extend the device's operating time, as it will lose power and memory more slowly. In this mode, the dictaphone will operate for several hundred hours.
Such a solution makes the dictaphone very versatile and suitable both for leaving it for longer periods and for recording specific meetings. Ideal for teachers, students, journalists, lawyers, businessmen, elderly people... it will work everywhere and in every situation.
VOR System
One of the dictaphone's distinguishing features is its VOR system (Voice Operated Recording). This technology automatically starts recording upon sound detection and stops when the sound fades. This solution allows for saving space in the device's memory and increases ease of use.
Noise Reduction
The dictaphone is equipped with an advanced noise reduction function that blocks ambient sounds, ensuring recording clarity. The "GAIN" function, responsible for this, allows for microphone sensitivity adjustment from 0 to 7, which enables precise adaptation of the recorded sound level to ambient conditions.
Bitrate Adjustment
The dictaphone offers the ability to adjust the recording bitrate, allowing for selection of sound quality appropriate to the user's needs. Thanks to this function, you can balance recording quality with available memory space, by choosing one of five available options (from 0 to 4).
Recording Segmentation
The dictaphone is equipped with a recording segmentation function, which automatically divides the file into smaller fragments after a specified time. The user can independently set the length of segments from 1 to 999 minutes per segment, which facilitates subsequent processing and management of recordings.
Precise Date and Time Setting
Thanks to the precise date and time setting function, all recordings are accurately time-stamped, which is extremely useful for organizing and reviewing archived files. The ability to precisely determine the date and time of recording adds an additional level of control and order in data management.
Exceptional functionality
The dictaphone stands out with its exceptional functionality thanks to the built-in headphone output (MicroUSB). Now you can conveniently listen to your recordings in the library, cafe or while traveling, without disturbing others and enjoying privacy. The dictaphone has the ability to fast forward and rewind recordings, which significantly facilitates the management of audio files.
Additionally, the dictaphone will serve not only as a reliable recording device but also as a high-quality music player. The built-in equalizer makes every listened recording or favorite song sound excellent.
Recordings are extremely clear and crisp, ensuring comfort during listening. The ability to play recordings directly from the device makes it even more versatile.
Practical lanyard
An additional advantage is the possibility to hang the dictaphone on a lanyard, thanks to a special spot on the side of the device. This solution allows for even more discreet placement of the dictaphone, while ensuring convenience of use.
